CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

The present application claims the benefit of Chinese patent applicationNo. 202021985449.5 filed on Sep. 11, 2020, which is hereby incorporatedby reference herein in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to an auxiliary tool for daily use.Specifically, it relates to an adsorptive anti-tipping device and a cupbody matched therewith.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Beverage containers in the prior art, such as glasses, mugs, cans,bottles and the like, are prone to tipping and consequent contentspillage due to the fact that their center of gravity is higher than thesupporting bottom, resulting in unnecessary waste and troublesomecleaning problem. When these containers are subjected to side loads, thecenter of gravity will rise, thus rendering them no longer stable. Theseside loads may be imparted by inadvertently knocking the container witha hand or arm or when the container is subject to acceleration forces(horizontal, vertical or in any other direction) within the confines ofa moving land vehicle, aircraft or watercraft. Glasses and mugs, due totheir relatively large openings, are particularly prone to major contentloss in the event of tipping. Although this problem can be addressed byadding a removable cover thereon to avoid the spillage of contents, thecover is easily over tightened or unscrewed, which may lead toinconvenient use.

It is known that a suction device can be used to secure a containerhaving opening to a surface to avoid tipping. Such devices, however,require the user not only to affirmatively place the container intocontact with the suction device, but also to apply a downward force tosecure the suction device to the surface, or to perform an unlockingaction to release the suction device from the surface or to release thecontainer from the suction device. Hence it is inconvenient to use.

Therefore, it is urgent for those skilled in the art to provide anadsorptive anti-tipping device to prevent tipping of the cup body andthe consequent spillage of the contents.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In view of the above, the present application provides a device whichcan prevent the container from tipping, which is simple and practical,and easy to be promoted.

The present application has the following beneficial effects. The deviceof the present application sets a sucker for adsorbing on the nonporousplane. When a cup body or a container is placed on the device, as thecup body or container is buckled on the device, the sucker is adsorbedon the surface due to the action of buckle force, thereby the containeris not prone to tip when being touched from the side; when the cup bodyor container is picked up, the buckle force between the cup body and thefixed cover drives the fixed cover to move the limit rod above the fixedcover upward, and the abutment rod moves laterally under the action ofthe driving slope, and then prods the driving block to drive the bottomend face of the suction component at the corresponding position to moveslightly, thus air leaks out from the gap between the bottom end face ofthe suction component and its contact surface, and the sucker isloosened. With this invention, it is realized that a container is in astate of adsorptive anti-tipping or loosened when the cup body isnaturally picked up or put down. It is simple and practical, with goodprospects for promotion.

Specific Process for Implementation

When the cup body is placed on the adsorptive anti-tipping device, pressdownward to make the barbs on the cup body buckle with the installationgrooves at the upper end of the device. During the pressing process, thesuction cup is adsorbed on the nonporous surface under the pressure. Atthis moment, attributing to the adsorption of the suction cup, the cupbody or the container would not tip whether being pushed sideways fromany direction. When one drinks water or picks up the cup, attributing tothe barbs, the fixed cover moves up with the cup body, driving thesliding rod to move upward. At the same time, since the sliding rodabuts against the driving slope, the sliding rod also moves laterallyduring its upward movement, driving the driving block to move aside. Atthis time, tiny gap is generated between the driving block and theadsorption surface and then air enters, realizing the loosening of thesuction cup, at this time the device is connected with the cup body. Itis optionally that, after the cup body is picked up, the cup body ispeeled from the device for the convenience of drinking or using, whichalso facilitates placing the cup body to the fixed cover of the devicesmoothly next time.
